  1. Source: ETSI GTSC-1 Agenda item 7.2 For: Information GSC-8 061 Broadband Access Standards (GSC 7/4) ETSI activity overview

  2. Introduction • ETSI advantage of 15 years experience on • Standardisation work • In the European Telecom market • With increasing global participation • In technical and related areas, including regulatory aspects • Access technologies activity in ETSI • Were from the very beginning of ETSI a focal point • Cover all present technologies • Have increasingly wide and deep expertise and activity • Interact intensively with other areas (in & out of ETSI) • Members and tools • Most relevant market players from all sectors are represented • Advanced (e-)tools facilitate an increasing productivity • Time to market in Access technologies is of central importance • To facilitate the launch of Next Generation Services & Networks GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA

  3. Wire-line BB Access activities • NGN@Home • Recently launched to treat issues on Home Networks • To standardise the inter-work of all home technologies (incl. radio) • To facilitate common use of features in different systems • xDSL • Covers the application of all DSL technologies in Europe • Covers coexistence with legacy systems and infrastructures • Focus on rational frequency management in the local loop • Cable (Telecom over CATV infrastructures) • Covers the application of Cable technologies in Europe • Covers lower (Euro-DOCSIS) and higher layers (Euro-IPCablecom) • Considers the impact of convergence Telecom-Broadcast • PLT/ PLC • Covers all aspects of Power Line in Europe • Takes special care on EMC issues • Supported by “white goods industry” aiming Home automation GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA

  4. Home Networks, NGN @ Home • General information • Working Group “NGN@Home” was recently launched • Wide scope initial work plan to identify available information • Most relevant activities for new technologies launch are described in • “NGN@Home” & “Intelligent Home and Business” • New services and applications (incl. Broadband) @ Home • Technology independent solutions for Home Network elements to inter-operate among them and with Telecom Networks & Services • All technologies (wire & wireless, access & home) in the Home environment will beneficiate to coexist and be used at the best • Co-operation • with CENELEC & other Organisations: exist & being intensified GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA

  5. xDSL(1) • General information • An overview of the activities is a available on the web • Co-operation agreement with ITU-T (SG15) • Organisations like DSL Forum and many industry members with global dimension influence strongly ETSI developments • Standards are recommended by regulating authorities • (OJEC): Official Journal of the European Communities (C 331/40; 31.12.2002) • Spectral management (under study) • key guidance on TR 101 830 (OJEC) series of documents • Compatibility with POTS and ISDN largely covered • Splitters specification [TS 101 952] (OJEC) & test [TS 101 953] • & other studies, e.g. [TR 102 139], [TR 101 728], [ES 202 913] GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA

  6. xDSL(2) • Euro-ADSL [Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line] • Key standard TS 101 388 (OJEC) • Approx. 6 Mbit/s downstream / 800 kbit/s upstream • Revision started to increase bit-rates and enhance flexibility • Euro-VDSL [Very high-speed Digital Subscriber Line] • Key standard TS 101 270 (parts 1 & 2) (OJEC) • Transceivers using single carrier or multi-carrier techniques • Revision include PSD [Power Spectral Density] revised masks, performance • Euro-SDSL [Symmetrical single-pair high bit rate DSL] • Key standard TS 101 524 (OJEC) • Multi-rate symmetric Transmission up to 2.3 Mbit/s (single pair) • Work on expansion to provide 10 Mbit/s (multiple pairs) • Asymmetric data-rates optional GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA

  7. xDSL(3) • HDSL [High bit-rate DSL] • Key standard TS 101 135 (OJEC) • ISDN Basic Rate Access enhancements • Key standard TS 102 080 • Extended with ADSL- & VDSL friendly PSD masks for both European line codes (2B1Q & 4B3T) • Increases performance of ADSL & VDSL over ISDN • Euro-VoDSL [simultaneous Voice and data over DSL] • Specification of low and high latency channels • Dynamic bit-rate repartitioning included • Specification available by end of 2003 GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA

  8. Cable (1) • General information • An overview of the activities is available on the web • Global co-operation • Agreement with ITU-T (SG16) • Agreement with SCTE- Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers • Organisations like CableLabs, EuroPacketcable Forum, ECCA and many others with global dimension • Broadcast organisations are involved • Most relevant areas of activity • Euro-DOCSIS versions • 1.0: on the market [ES 201 488] (ed. 1), • 1.1: standardised [ES 201 488], coming to the market • 2.0: main standards [ES 202 488] being adopted GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA

  9. Cable (2) • Most relevant areas of activity • Euro-IPCablecom • TS 101 909 series of standards is in progress and the following has been achieved for European market: • basic system characteristics adapted to European needs • European SS7 and V5 inter-operation • Interoperation with European POTS/PSTN • A number of reports studying related matters cover a wide range of problems being solved, including next steps, e.g.: • European Industry needs [TR 101 963 ] • Availability and Reliability [TR 101 971] • Tracking regional differences [TR 101 972] • Implementor’s guide[DTR/ AT 020027] • IPCablecom interwork with other NGNs [TR102 909] • Testing architecture [TR 102 136] GTSC#1 April 2003, OTTAWA
